Notes

Workin' a Cappella this month, inspired by the great and insane music of Dokaka (www.dokaka.com).

the words:

There are compromises
I can never accept
even though you say
they're good for me

There are boundaries
you must always respect
otherwise
I'm not free

you keep asking for concessions
you ask for more than I can give
I've got my most valued possession
the freedom for which I live

What kind of man
would I be
if I gave you
What belonged to me
what kind of man
would I be
trading freedom
for security


There are those ideas
I must always reject
limits on the way
we live

And also those ideals
we must always protect
ever on the
defensive

you use fear as a weapon
to wear down a resistant will
of a people who are stubborn
a determination you cannot kill


What kind of man
would I be
if I gave you
What belonged to me
what kind of man
would I be
trading freedom
for security
